The Denver Broncos will soon find out their entire 2024 schedule when the league announces it, but the best possible matchup the league could make is obvious. That would be to have the Pittsburgh Steelers against them to kick off the year.
The league likes drama. Television likes drama. Those are the things that bring in those extra viewers. So why not go one step further and put it in prime time?

The Broncos against their old quarterback, Russell Wilson. Sean Payton, with his new quarterback, Bo Nix, look to show the world that they have the right guy under center now while the guy who used to hold that position watches from the opposite sideline.
Denver Broncos vs. Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 1 makes too much sense
That story writes itself and it would make for some great television. Remember when Wilson was traded to the Broncos? That next season, Denver opened the season on the road against the Seattle Seahawks on Monday Night Football.
After missing the playoffs for eight straight years, the Broncos don't really deserve a prime time slot, but NFL fans would watch this game. So put it on a Sunday night or a Monday night. But if the league wants to start the season with a juicy matchup, this is it.
